I gave a talk at YAPC::NA last year in Orlando, FL (2014) entitled "First Time CPAN Contributor." SawyerX mentioned I should explore using Dist::Zilla in lieu of Module::Starter. During this talk I will expand upon topics I mentioned last year and discuss how you can start incorporating Dist::Zilla into your workflow. If you want to learn how to use Module::Starter to create CPAN modules then you should attend this talk. If you want to learn how to transition from using Module::Starter to using Dist::Zilla then you should consider attending this talk. In general, I think you should attend this talk ... but then again I'm a bit biased.
